Now the brand is rolling out its first national TV campaign, created by agency 72andSunny New York and directed by Tim Godsall.

The spots center on what must be, to kids, the worst ice cream truck ever. Instead of getting frozen treats, they get nihilistic lectures on the harsh realities of our cold and indifferent world.

“We created Halo Top to be able to eat ice cream as much as we wanted, and I believe everyone can relate to the need for ice cream after a rough day,” says Justin Woolverton, CEO and founder. “We’re excited to bring this concept to life and feel like it’s a great way to demonstrate that Halo Top is exactly what adults have been waiting for—delicious ice cream with around 300 calories per pint.”

With dry delivery and a delightfully cold-steel edge, the ads will make you laugh through the gritted teeth of existential dread.

On a bright note, we do get a cameo from The Bachelor alumnus Nick Viall, but as you might imagine after his multiple on-camera heartbreaks, he’s not the most gushing advocate of whole-hearted love:

Other spots in the campaign focus on pretty standard daily nightmares of adult life: online dating and crappy jobs.

The ads begin airing nationally tonight and will run throughout the summer—peak season for eating ice cream in the sun or staring into the dark abyss of our merciless and unforgiving reality.
